The fire retardant
decorative laminates, which are produced
according to EN 438, are used on
horizontal and vertical surfaces, which
are sensitive to burning or sensitive to
fumes which are emitted during the fire.
The thickness of the laminates, which
are used by adhering it to an carrier,
is between 0,6 mm and 1,2 mm. It is
produced as one of its surface sanded.
On the other hand, the fire retardant
laminates, which are used as carriers
themselves, are used with the thickness
between 2mm and 25mm. These type of
laminates are designed to be used in the
interior locations, where there could be
crowd of people.
These type of
laminates are used in the interior
locations as surface covering or as

hazardous fumes it emits during the burning and
according to the burning speed. The test reports
and the certificates in relation to the ASD fire
retardant laminates can be found at the Quality
